Multimeter Basics For Boaters - How to Measure Voltage, Amps & Continuity

In this video, we cover the basics multimeter settings, alternating current (AC), direct current (DC), and how to measure voltage. We also cover current or amp measurement and impedance or continuity measurement. We show practical examples of testing a boat electrical outlet, demonstrating continuity on a wire, and measuring the voltage of a compressor.
The video also covers different kinds of multimeters and clamp meters in addition to offering some tips on what to do to ensure you get an accurate reading. For more in-depth information on the multimeter, visit: sailingbritican.com/multimete...
